José Santa Cruz
José Santacruz is a Brazilian voice actor and comedian.
Santacruz been on the business since the 80's, and literally played hundreds of characters on hundreds of cartoons. He is the official voice of Magneto in Brazil, since he played the character in about every media he appeared, including the 90's X-men cartoon, X-Men Evolution and the movies. He is also the third voice of Dr. Hibbert on The Simpsons.
He played Megatron in the G1 series, but after that, he only returned to the character on Transformers Armada, where he sounded totally bored with the plot (Many don't blame him). He did a much better delivery of the villain on the 2007 movie, which probably means he liked it a lot better than Armada.
On live-action, he played Andy Sipowics on NYPD Blue and Earl Sinclair in Dinosaurs, a role for which he is fondly remembered by fans to this day. On movies, he currently plays Hagrid on the Harry Potter movies.
His work as a comedian includes parts on the (awesomely classic) show "A Praça é Nossa" and the (awesomely bad) "Zorra Total".
Curiously, his delivery of Megatron is much more similar to *Hugo Weaving's, since he uses a much more agressive voice with the villain than *Frank Welker originally did.
And he is known among his co-worker as "Santinha". *God only knows why!
